It's been a little more than 60 days in to the new Congress,
and my new position as your Senator, and I'd like to offer an update on
some of the work I am doing on behalf of Hoosiers. We started the
process to repeal Obamacare and have begun meaningful regulatory reform
that will put Hoosier small businesses in a position to succeed. We've
rolled back several burdensome regulations, including "The Stream Rule"
which would have crippled Indiana's coal industry, and, we are
beginning the process of confirming a faithful Constitutionalist to the
United States Supreme Court � an issue that I know was a top priority
for many of you. Keep reading for more on my role in these actions as
well as a few other issues you may care about:
On the Job
Mainstream, Faithful Constitutionalist
I met with Neil Gorsuch, President Trump's Supreme Court nominee, for
nearly an hour in my office. I expected him to be impressive, and he
was, but I appreciated that he mentioned Hoosiers specifically in our
conversation. He understands that, for Hoosiers, all of the rights that
allow us to pursue the American dream are at stake. The Senate will
begin hearing on Mr. Gorsuch's confirmation next week; for my candid
take on our meeting, click on the image below:

Rolling Back Regulations that Would Have Eliminated Indiana Coal Jobs
"I voted to overturn a job-killing coal regulation before it could do
serious damage to Indiana's economy. When it was introduced in the
waning days of the Obama Administration, they called it "The Stream
Rule", but at home in Indiana, we knew it for exactly what it is, "the
coal rule". It would have effectively locked-up half of the nation's
coal supply below ground, and thus destroyed as many as a third of
America's coal mining jobs.
It's time to end the era of federal overreach and allow Hoosiers to
pursue their livelihoods without fear that a rule passed by unelected
bureaucrats will harm our industries." To read more on this, click here

US
Senator
Todd
Young

It's
been
a
little
more
than
60
days
in
to
the
new
Congress,
and
my
new
position
as
your
Senator,
and
I'd
like
to
offer
an

on
some
of
the

I
am
doing
on

of
Hoosiers.
We
started
the
process
to
repeal
Obamacare
and
have
begun
meaningful
regulatory
reform
that
will
put
Hoosier

in

rolled

“The

we

On

Mainstream,
Faithful
Constitutionalist

I

with
Neil
Gorsuch,
President
Trump’s
Supreme

nominee,
for
nearly

in

I
expected

I

He
understands
that,
for
Hoosiers,
all
of
the
rights
that
allow
us
to
pursue
the
American
dream
are
at
stake.
The
Senate
will
begin

on
Mr.
Gorsuch's
confirmation
next
week;

"Securely
tucked
away
amidst
Indiana’s
rolling
hills
and
farmland,
CAAA

the
country’s
second
largest
Army
munitions
depot
situated
on
the
world’s
third
largest
Navy
base

Naval
Support
Activity
Crane.

Here,
more
than
a
quarter
of
the
entire
U.S.
military’s
munitions
inventory
is
stored,
maintained,
renovated,
shipped
and
handled
with
care
by
Army
civilian
personnel.

Although
only
two
of
the
hundreds
of
patriots
serving
at
CAAA
wear
a
military
uniform,
the
men

women
of
Crane’s

workforce
perform
an
essential
mission

getting
our
troops
the
tools
they
need
to
defeat
our
enemies
and
come
home
safely.
They
help
maintain
the

of

Senators
Cornyn,
Rubio,
and
I
were
among
the
first
to
urge
this
new
Administration
to
stand-up
to
Iran.
We
applauded
their
decision
to
sanction
more
than
two
dozen
individuals
and
entities
associated
with
Iran’s
terrorist
activities
and
ballistic
missile
program. Read

Sen.
Todd
Young’s
tuition
plan:
‘Pay
your
way
through
school,
after
school’And
so,
Young
has
introduced
the
Investing
in
Student
Success
Act
of
2017
in
order
to
facilitate
an
alternative
model
of
financing
education.
Critically,
the
funding
would
not
come
from
the
federal
government,
but
private
companies
who
sign
"income-sharing
agreements"
with
students.
As
the
name
implies,
the
investor
finances
the
student's
tuition,
in
exchange
for
a
percentage
of
the
individual's
income
for
a
set
number
of
years
after
graduation.

Senate
Marine
veteran
pushes
new
war
authorizationSen.
Todd
Young,
R-Ind.,
a
former
Marine
intelligence
officer
who
sits
on
the
Foreign
Relations
Committee,
introduced
a
bill
last
week
that
could
reopen
the
debate
over
war
powers
as
President
Donald
Trump
reviews
a
new
Pentagon
strategy
against
the
Islamic
State
group
and
wages
new
bombing
in
Yemen.
Several
House
lawmakers
are
also
pushing
for
an
updated
authorization
for
the
use
of
military
force,
known
as
an
AUMF.

One
more
thing
before
you
go...

It
was
my
privilege
to
vote
to
confirm
two
Hoosiers
this
week:
my
predecessor,
Dan
Coats
as
Director
of
National
Intelligence,
and
Seema
Verma
as
Administrator
for
the
Center
for
Medicare
and
Medicaid
Services.
They
have
done
our
state
proud
and
I
know
they
will
serve
our
country
well.
Check
out
this

with
Seema
and
her
fantastic
family
moments
before
her
Senate
confirmation
hearing:

Thank
you
for
the
continued
privilege
to
serve
our
state
in
this
new
post
in
the
Senate.
My
mission
is
to
fight
on
behalf
of
Hoosiers
and
the
interests
that
are
unique
to
our
state.
I
look
forward
to
working
with
you,
and
sharing
our
progress,
in
the
days
ahead.
Until
then
